Hi all
looking to buy a latr reg enfield.What do i need to check. Any serious issues? I listened to one the othe day an it sounded quite tappety from the top end, is this common? Is the 500 a better option. Will only be plodding around. Very occasional two up run atb Floyd

Parts for the 500 are more difficult to get as you go south from the Himalayas
Exhaust pipes blue ? crack the oil lines to the heads while idling, you should have oil, if not clean oil filter or replace pump The rattling is usually fixed by opening the side tappet cov .......Nah, usually by an Enfield Waller and not a problem Inspect wheel bearings, throttle cable not left draped across engine. Battery. Enfields are a bitch with a bad one Front forks - check for oileaks Tyres are cheap get a new set (assuming you are in India)
